Unfortunately, single-use plastic bottles are not an environmentally sound solution since they can take centuries to biodegrade. To provide residents with an alternative to single-use plastic bottles, the Town of Danville has installed hydration stations at both the Danville Community Center, 420 Front St, and the Veterans Memorial Building, 400 Hartz Avenue.

Residents can bring their refillable bottles to the hydration station and top them off with cold, filtered, H2O.

Water bottle filling stations deliver a clean, quick bottle fill and enhance sustainability by minimizing our dependency on disposable one-use water bottles.

For those without a refillable bottle, the standard drinking fountain will still be part of the unit.
